Yeah, I saw that. I had to go and check out the eBay store and such. Man, that would be a great $2,000 investment. May have to start saving up for that, as I have been looking at doing the springer setup anyway. I have always loved the Badboys and Springers. Can't wait to see what that will look like on your Rocker........

Thanks. I love the seat, much better than the LaPera I had. Your bike is sharp as hell also. I am digging the Rocker more and more, with all the badass setups that are popping up now. Have to say, I wasn't that fond of them at first.

I too had thought about this springer on my NT. Here is a pic I've been holding on for awhile.. I think it belongs to someone on this forum.

Are you thinking of the wide tire kit? That would look great with your bike.

I would love to do a 300 conversion, but, I doubt that will happen. Hell, for what it would cost to do the springer and heartland kit, I could sell the Train and buy me a Sucker Punch.........

DragonSlayer08,

Have you checked to make sure the new forks will fit the Rocker front wheel hub? Is that an issue? I would guess it's just a matter of getting the right spacers?

I would love to add the springer front end to my rocker as well but there's a lot of things that have to be considered when doing an upgrade like this. It would definitely add to my old school retro look.

Can't wait to see it on your Rocker that's for sure.

ohh man. i can't wait to see this thing on the bike. i also remember you talking about this front end when you first got your bike (i actually saved a picture on my computer). i thought about getting this a while back but after going through all the hassle with my front wheel, i got put off cause i didn't want to end up in another jam trying to get this front end to fit the bike.

you are a brave man for bitting the bullet and being the first to put this on your bike. can't wait man !!!!

Hey Mike:

The front wheel hub will work with spacers, however, because it is a 1" axle I will need to change the bearings in my wheel to .750". I have the added benefit of my son who has already put this springer on his 06 Dyna Wide Glide.

It would look really goo on your bike. You may want to check out the other springers they offer on Bike Builder's Bible.
